- I am interested in finding out what kinds of software people enjoy using on the
- CD-ROM format. Thus, I would like to take an informal-survey and post my
- findings here on the net. I believe that if you take the time to tell me a
- little bit about what kinds of products that you find useful, enjoy on CD-ROM
- that it could conceivably help us all... both developers and end-users.
-
- Please feel free to write anything you would like in reply to me. I would
- appreciate anything that you have to say. If you need some inspiration,
- however, I would like to suggest responding on the following topics:
-
- Have you seen any useful/fun CD-ROM products? Why have they been useful or
- fun?
-
- I
- F
- What areas of the market do you feel are lacking in terms of good CD-ROM
- software? Business? Education? Software tools? Games? Graphics? Digital
- Video? Sounds? Desktop Publishing? Spreadsheets? Fonts? Word Processors?
- Utilities? <-- (Hmm CD-ROM based utilities... are there any?) digital books?
- digital magazines? source code archives?
-
- What types of CD-ROMs do you usually buy? (See above list for possible
- categories?) Could I possibly ask you to name your favorite product in
- this/these categories? If not, it's okay, really!
-
- Hmmm... that seems like about all for now. I would really appreciate any
- responses that you can give. Could you possibly give me an indication of what
- it is that you do or why that you like/want the CD-ROM products that you
- mention?
-
- thanks much, :-)
